Ingredients
- 6 large flour tortillas Burrito-size
- 1 lb ground beef or shredded chicken
- 1 small onion, diced Optional
- 1 medium bell pepper, diced Optional
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter For brushing
- 1/2 cup sour cream Optional topping
- 1/2 cup salsa Optional topping
- 1/4 cup guacamole Optional topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease or line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Lay 6 large tortillas around the edges of the sheet pan, letting half of each tortilla hang over the sides. Place 1 tortilla in the center to cover the bottom.
- Spread the cooked, seasoned ground beef or chicken evenly over the tortillas. Add sautéed onions and peppers if using.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar and Mexican blend cheese generously over the meat.
- Fold the overhanging tortillas over the filling, covering it completely. Place one additional tortilla on top to cover any gaps.
- Brush the top of the quesadilla with olive oil or melted butter to ensure it crisps up during baking.
- Place another sheet pan on top of the quesadilla to weigh it down, ensuring it bakes evenly.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, then remove the top sheet pan and bake for an additional 5 minutes to crisp the top.
- Allow the quesadilla to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve with sour cream, salsa, guacamole, and other toppings of your choice.
Notes
For a veggie version, substitute the meat with sautéed mushrooms, black beans, and spinach.
